Direct growth of novel alloyed PtAu nanodendrites.
A novel nanostructure of a PtAu catalyst, alloyed PtAu nanodendrites, has been synthesized via a reproducible single-step hydrothermal co-reduction of Pt and Au inorganic precursors and shows exceptionally high catalytic activity towards the electrooxidation of formic acid.
